PCB Layout

PCB layout is very important to achieve stable

operation. Please follow these guidelines and

take below figure for reference.

Place Rlimit close to I_limit pin, Cdv/dt close to

dv/dt pin and input cap close to Vcc pin. Keep the

N/C pin float. Put vias in thermal pad and ensure

enough copper area near Vcc and source to

achieve better thermal performance.
